Michelle Spring co-authored Crime and Thriller Writing (2013) and The Arvon Book of Crime and Thriller Writing (2013), guides for aspiring crime fiction writers.
Both books were published in 2013 and draw on Spring’s experience as a crime novelist. The Arvon Book of Crime and Thriller Writing is associated with the Arvon Foundation, a UK writing charity that runs residential creative writing courses. Spring brought practical knowledge from her own Laura Principal mystery series to the guides. The two titles cover similar ground from slightly different angles, and either one gives aspiring crime writers a solid introduction to the craft.
